Configuring the iSCSI Initiator with

Target (REO Device) and Initiator Assignments

X

On each applicable server, use the management tool that came with your
iSCSI initiator to specify the target (REO Device) information.

To configure the REO Appliance as a backup-and-recovery-acceleration
appliance, you must provide target (REO Device) and initiator (host)
information. An iSCSI name (for iSCSI) or a set of WWNN and WWPN
names (for FC) is required for both the targets and the initiators. After
targets and initiators have been specified, they must be assigned to each
other. This must be performed on the server by using the software or
hardware initiator, and on the REO Appliance by using the REO
Appliance console, which you completed in the previous section.

Note:

For detailed information on various drivers and adapters, see the

manufacturer’s documentation for assistance on assigning targets.
You can also check the Overland Web site (www.overlandstorage.com)
for the applicable Application Notes.
